How to stop receiving alerts during night time from alertd and ssmtp

Hi,

Can I suggest that you set a cron job to add the smtp config (or alertd config) at 0600 and remove it again at 0000?

Something along the lines of this:

 Copy to /etc/cron.d/alert_enable

SHELL=/bin/bash
PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
MAILTO=user@somewhere
HOME=/var/tmp
0 0 6 * * root /bin/bash /var/local/bin/alert_enable.sh 1>/var/tmp/alert_enable.log 2>&1

 Copy to /etc/cron.d/alert_disable

SHELL=/bin/bash
PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
MAILTO=user@somewhere
HOME=/var/tmp
0 0 0 * * root /bin/bash /var/local/bin/alert_disable.sh 1>/var/tmp/alert_disable.log 2>&1

 Copy to /var/local/bin/alert_enable.sh
!/bin/bash
tmsh create sys smtp-server mail smtp-server-host-name mail.intranet.com username f5mail password f5password

 Copy to /var/local/bin/alert_disable.sh
!/bin/bash
tmsh delete sys smtp-server mail
